Ralph Nader Back On The Florida Ballot

Makoto916 writes "It's official. The Florida State Supreme court has ruled in favor of 3rd party candidate Ralph Nader. He is now back on the ballot, and just in time since absentee ballots were to be mailed out tomorrow (Saturday). This is certainly a victory for those of us who believe that the country is better off when alternative political voices aren't suppressed."

Certainty doesnt mean what it used to

This is certainly a victory for those of us who believe that the country is better off when alternative political voices aren't suppressed.

Are you fucking kidding me? Sure cause Nader (a.k.a. republican henchman for hire) getting on the ballot means only that this is good for third party options. Please, be real. This is good if you like invading other countries and killing tons of arabs. Other than that i dont see the great benefit.

the truth is that the US has a presidential system that given the size of the US makes it extremely dificult to have more than two parties. It just takes too much money to run an effective campaign. If this were a parliamentary system there would be more parties representing more interests, but with a winner take all presidential system the third party will prety much be relegated to be a spoiler and not much else.

...like a whore's drawers!

After the SC rules that he must not be put on the ballot for at least two different reasons, Jeb goes and replaces people on his Court, so that they will fix the decision his way.

Good going, the good ole' boys still know how to rig it up!
